In the heart of Puyallup, WA, a revolution has been quietly unfolding since 1991. The Bag Lady, a company deeply entrenched in the construction industry, has emerged as the leading supplier of both filled and empty sandbags throughout the Northwest. With an unwavering commitment to excellence and innovation, this esteemed entity has expanded its horizons into all facets of erosion control, setting new benchmarks for efficiency and ergonomic design in the process.

From its inception, The Bag Lady recognized the critical role that sandbags played within the construction sector and beyond. Erosion control is not merely about preventing soil from being worn away; it’s about safeguarding our infrastructure, protecting our communities from natural disasters, and preserving our environment for future generations. Acknowledging this profound responsibility, The Bag Lady ventured into becoming the foremost erosion-control installer for both public and private sectors by the mid-90s. Today, it stands unrivaled as the top erosion control company by offering what is heralded as “the safest, fastest, and most ergonomically friendly portable sandbagger in the world.”

At the core of The Bag Lady’s groundbreaking success is its innovative approach to designing automated sandbag-filling machines. Through meticulous engineering and a deep understanding of their client’s needs, they have fabricated a machine that epitomizes ease of use and operational efficiency.

This remarkable feat not only sets it apart from competitors but also offers a compelling testament to its claim of having “the most ergonomic, easy-to-use, and fastest filling machine on the market.” These machines are instrumental across various applications including flood prevention strategies, military defense mechanisms for creating sandbag bunkers, and standard erosion control requirements for projects worldwide.

The global footprint of The Bag Lady’s technology stretches across North and South America to remote corners of the Caribbean, Middle East, Europe, and the South Pacific. Among their ingenious creations is the Flood Fighter – a cylindrical tapered tool designed to amplify production rates by 300-500%. Such innovations underscore The Bag Lady’s relentless pursuit of excellence in serving diverse client needs around the globe.

Continuing its legacy as a leader in erosion-control solutions worldwide demands more than just superior machinery; it requires an unyielding dedication to quality assurance. Each machine undergoes rigorous inspection to ensure it meets high standards before reaching clients who trust The Bag Lady with their critical projects.
